Playing In Dirt

1 Man, some bikes & 1 world.

I’m not sure what I just witnessed, but I enjoyed it.

There is no such thing as a good fit that is uncomfortable. The good fit, which, as I have said, must be allied to cutting, must never have any appearance of strain anywhere, and it should look as relaxed as you feel.

Talent hits the target no one else can hit; genius hits the target no one else can see.

— Arthur Schopenhauer

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people.

Unfortunately, that’s too rare a commodity. A lot of people in our industry haven’t had very diverse experiences. So they don’t have enough dots to connect, and they end up with very linear solutions without a broad perspective on the problem. The broader one’s understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in you pocket, you’d better use them to call a tailor.
